Hi,

If you start multiple mysqld's, will each one process occupy same memory
as its friend? Or is it that first process uses a certain amount of
memory, and then each instance uses a portion of the system memory and
shares the other with the main process?

  With the current FreeBSD architecture, since there is only one
process,
it can only run one CPU at a time.

  You can run multiple mysqld's to circumvent this.  This is warmly
recommended for other reasons.  There is a new startup script included
with the newer version of MySQL designed to start lots of mysqlds
(mainly
for vhosting).
